Final answer:

The animal shelter needs to pay an additional Rs 4,65,000 to pay off the van after having already paid Rs 1,50,000 from the total cost of Rs 6.15 lakhs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student has asked how much more money the animal shelter needs to pay after having paid part of the cost of a van. The total cost of the van is Rs 6.15 lakhs, and they have already paid Rs 1,50,000. To find out the remaining balance, we subtract the amount paid from the total cost.

Total cost of the van: Rs 6,15,000

Amount already paid: Rs 1,50,000

Remaining balance: Rs 6,15,000 - Rs 1,50,000 = Rs 4,65,000

Therefore, the animal shelter still needs to pay Rs 4,65,000 to completely pay off the cost of the van.
